Ahhh.... The good ol' days.

I watched WWF from the early/mid 80s all the way up through Stone Cold & The Rock. I was still in to it when Brock Lesnar showed up, but my wife aboslutely HATES it, so I really don't get to watch it that much anymore unless I'm home alone or remember to record it (Which I rarely do.)


No Flyin' Brian Pillman or The Iron Sheik?

Wish I could, don't know much about the buisness end but I think I'd fair well with the creative aspect.

I think they'd put him in the X division. I guess that wouldn't be all that bad since(at least from the limited amount I've seen lately) they seem to have the better matches.

Iron Sheik was cool. Pillman did most of his wrestling in feds other than WWF so I wasn't real familiar with him before he died. Like Eddie Guerrero though, he picked a hotel in Minnesota as his place to croak. Must be something we put in the water up here...

The early 80's through the 90's were the best years in wrestling. I haven't watched it in the last couple of years but I still follow up on behind the scene news and whats going on by reading online and stuff. It's gotten real bad lately and just isn't worth watching anymore. I miss the good days of wrestling when it was really family fun and entertaining :(

Agreed! I still like to flip on Raw or Smackdown whenever I'm able to, but it's only like once every month or two and the last time I did, they spent at least 30 minutes of airtime on a fake Donald Trump vs. fake Rosie O'Donnell storyline. It was fuckin' horrrrrible.

I did see that Great Khali dude though. He's HUGE. Has he literally killed someone in the ring before STE?

Well, it might have been exaggerated, and there's been reports that the other guy did the move wrong (although those same reports say he did the move like he'd always done it and hadn't gotten injured before), but he was at least somewhat involved in a wrestler's death.

Anywho, I think 2000-early 2001 was the best time frame for WWF. From Mankind taking off the mask and shirt to reveal Cactus Jack (still gives me goosebumps), until Steph was announced as the "owner" of ECW, that was quality TV.

Divas suck. The only one I've ever seen that actually seemed to have her job based on talent and not looks was Lita.

Well, she certainly didn't get by on her looks (unless someone in management has a horse-sex fetish), but talent? You mean her one move that she did sloppily every time? Or her ability to give horrible promos in place of her on-air b/f who could cut GOOD promos?

Lita sucked
